Cover of Arundhati Roy: POWERPOLITICS (ePUB)

Power Politics is an essay that argues specifically against the privatization and corporatization of essential infrastructure. In this eloquent work, which proved her powerful commitment to social justice, she talks about her perspective on issues like globalization of the world economy, the privatization of India’s power supply by US- based energy companies, and the construction of monumental dams that will dislocate hundreds of thousands of people. This work also includes an extended interview, in her New Delhi home, to Frontline’s editor, N Ram.
